Growth Rings in the Roots of Temperate Forbs are Robust Annual Markers
Abstract: There is increasing interest in the analysis of annual growth rings in the secondary root xylem of perennial forbs (herb‐chronology). Therefore, we need to verify whether these growth rings are always formed annually. To investigate the formation of root rings we performed common garden experiments at two distinct sites in Switzerland.

Tree-Ring Chronologies from Nepal
Ten ring-width based chronologies from Nepal are described and the prospects for further dendroclimatic work there reviewed briefly. The initial results are encouraging, and more intensive subregional sampling is called for. All the cores examined showed

Giant Sequoia Ring-Width Chronologies from the Central Sierra Nevada, California
Giant sequoia was one of the first species that A. E. Douglass examined in his pioneering tree- ring research. Recent attention to sequoia, stimulated by fire history studies in sequoia groves, has resulted in new ring-width chronologies based on both ...

Central Anatolia is one of the semi-arid regions of Turkey that does not offer very suitable conditions for the growth of trees. Tree growth is a process controlled by genetic, environmental and climatic factors. Trees record these signals, which provide

Transition in viscoelastic properties within successive annual rings of radiata pine (Pinus radiata)
Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) measurements of water-saturated radiata pine wood in the temperature range from 0 ℃ to 100 ℃ were focused to clarify the transition in viscoelastic properties within successive annual rings.

Intra-ring radial cracks in Sakhalin spruce (Picea glehnii) from artificial forest
The occurrence of radial cracks in Sakhalin spruce (Picea glehnii), differences in the degree of cracking among five habitats, and the relationship between cracks and wood density were investigated in a total of 79 logs collected from five sites in ...

Findings from an in-Depth Annual Tree-Ring Radiocarbon Intercomparison [PDF]
ABSTRACTThe radiocarbon (14C) calibration curve so far contains annually resolved data only for a short period of time. With accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) matching the precision of decay counting, it is now possible to efficiently produce large datasets of annual resolution for calibration purposes using small amounts of wood.

Tree-ring cellulose oxygen isotopic ratios have been widely studied as a hydrological proxy in monsoonal Asia. There has been, however, little attempt to perform proxy assessment of the intra-annual isotopic data to reconstruct hydroclimate with higher ...

Evaluation the skid trail effect on annual ring width fluctuations in Beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) and Alder (Alnus subcordata C. A. Mey.) trees (District Nav No. 1, Asalem forests, Guilan) [PDF]
Each skid trail construction affects the trees located on the road margins in various extents. The present study was conducted with the aim to assess the changes in annual ring widths of Beech and Alder trees compared to the control trees inside the Nav ...
